I spoke with our daughter-in-law Kristine, at about 10:00A today. She said that Chad was in surgery, at that time.
About an hour later she sent me a text message, that Chad was out of surgery and everything went well. I was so relieved!
An hour ago, I text her again to see if my son is at home and Kristine said yes, he's sleeping:)
Now, comes the healing process, I'm very glad it's all over with:)
We might go to visit them, but not today, of course.

Anticipating the surgery, I was nervous. Now that it's over, he's on his way to a full healing.

His hands are sore, but that's normal after major surgery.

@TheHorse I spoke with Chad yesterday(April 1st), he's almost ready to go back to work:) They cut his wrists, not his palms.

He will be wearing bandages for a week or so. The healing process will be the hardest part.

This is surgery that he has been putting off, for over a year. I'm glad he finally had it done!

@LindaOHio My sister had both replaced, a hip and one knee. The knee was definitely the worst!

@kobesbuddy Sounds like me. lol I need a new knee but don't want to get it done. Knees are much harder than hips.

@kobesbuddy It's worrisome to be far away when a loved one is having surgery.

I must have missed your post about his upcoming surgery. What kind of surgery did he just have?

Last Tuesday, Chad was scheduled for carpal tunnel surgery on his hand. He had it postponed until the following Tuesday(25th), for some reason:)

The actual surgery wasn't a big deal. The process of healing, will take quite a while.

@Ronrybs It all depends upon the person's ability, to recuperate. Good health, means a faster healing.

Kristine said that he's sleeping quite a bit, which is perfectly normal.

With Chad's job, his hands are major tools. He won't be able to do certain things, for a while.

Unfortunately, no, he won't. He has to heal, I hope he gives it some time.

The healing process will be the hardest part, he won't be able to continue his job.
